The beast, the demi-god...do they fight the man?
 
I hope this either revitalizes the GH franchise, or puts the final nail in the coffin.

I have never bought and barely played a Guitar Hero or Rock Band game. 
 
This will probably not change in the near future.

I'm sure a child could be into that story, but as an adult, I don't want a story or characters in my plastic guitar game. 
 
Why not take more time on Guitar Hero to develop actual compelling features? Or to copy what Harmonix has done.

Guitarhero 4 actually outsold Rockband 1 and  Guitarhero 5 actually outsold Rockband 2.  
and both GH and RB sell millions of units per year. Just because you don't like something does not mean it does not sell.
That being said I still love rockband but I still like guitarhero too.I buy both every time they come out and love them both. Sorry for bringing actual facts to the party and sorry for not hating something just because it's popular to hate.

Hey, remember Guitar Hero? Like, the first one? That was pretty cool.
 
That second one wasn't too shabby either.

I can't agree with you more, dude; I still like Guitar Hero, and I plan on getting this. 
 
However, did you notice that they said Lars was death metal? Wrong! VH1 did the same thing when talking about Mayhem. I hate the black metal genre due to all the vibes that go with it, but I'm such a metal addict that it kind of irks me when someone says something that inaccurate.

The story stuff of Guitar Hero has always been stupid and never worked. My only guess as to why they're putting so much focus on it this time around is that they've completely run out of ideas on how to evolve the game.
 
Rock Band 3 looks infinitely more interesting.

I seriously don't get the hate for this.  I can understand you just don't music games any more.
This quest mode with the story and crazy presentation is a really good thing. 
Anyone that does not see that either has a stick of their ass or is a rabid rockband fanboy.
Guess what I'm getting both and I've going to enjoy them both.
